Randomly stopped by here and this place gave me exactly what I needed. The pizza came out quick. It was fresh and delicious. Nothing to complaint about.
This is some of the best pizza in NYC! Out of the many pizza joints I’ve eaten at this one stands out for having superb pizza at an affordable price. Get the margarita: -->Flavourful and fresh tomato sauce and basil on top of a crisp light base. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
My neighborhood pizza joint. We all need one and this place is just right. They even have a custom slice for me - 5 stars for customer service
Price is great for a hearty lunch. Slices are huge and pack it on. So many options but the reason is it all goes so fast so go before the lynch rush. Even the plain slice is worth it but why stop there.
Reasonable pricing for a NYC pizzeria. Worth the $6 for the Philly Cheesesteak and Jalapeños slice! Absolutely! Almost the size of the tray. So good I took a second slice home! (Bit into it before getting home, so good)
Nice people. Gets too busy at noon. Not great if you only have 20-30 minutes to eat. Gets crowded fast then. But good solid selections to choose from. Worth a visit.

There's about a half dozen pizza spots within a few blocks of each other in the Gramercy / NoMad area, specifically up & down 3rd Ave.
Some are a bit more extravagant, some are a bit more experimental, and some are undeniably essential. Lunetta's is the latter and, for my money, the best in the neighborhood that I've tried so far.
A simple cheese slice is $3 out the door and the perfect balance of sauce (neither too sweet nor too earthy), cheese (the preferred amount to yield a veritable cheese-pull without overloading you with grease), and crust (non-greasy, holds it's shape while bending to the whim of the toppings at just the right time like a delicious dance, and offering a solid chew and texture). This is, in it's most essential form, the epitome of great New York Pizza.
The meat lovers is rich and warm, with the bacon rounding out the brightness of the sausage and punchiness of the pepperoni. It's not too heavy but welcomes you back 'for just one more slice' without any regret. This pie is particularly tasty and an absolute steal at $23 for an XL. This pie has potential to become everyone's 'usual'.
The white pizza is reliable, a calm companion when you're not feeling a red-sauce-slice, but, admittedly, could use... something; whether more ricotta globs populating the surface or a tangy element such as a more robust olive oil at the heart of the pie. It's just quite as definitive as other white slices I've had in the city, it doesn't quite hold its own as a meal and you'd definitely want a secondary slice to go with it. This is a still a good - if nothing special - piece of pizza, through and through.
The best part of Lunetta's is that they're open later than the competition just down the street.
There's a lot of good pizza in New York and there's a lot of great pizza. I don't know if you can find "the best", although you can certainly keep looking. But when you just need a pizza that makes you feel like you're in New York City, when you just need a slice that satisfies the most instinctual urge of hot, cheap, tasty food - whether you're sober or attempting to sober up - you can never go wrong with the essentials, and Lunetta's offers you just that.

Working in the area, I et here almost exclusively. Nice people, good food, good pricing.
I order their baked ziti with grilled chicken. BIG portion. Ricotta, throughout. Topped with mozzarella. // Their penne a la vodka is also good!
I get their burger, deluxe, "medium well with crispy bacon," to which I add hot sauce, never ketchup. Fries are good and crispy.
